Is this snack familiar to you?
Made from eggs, sugar, flour, wheat molasses and cooking oil. Not very healthy eh? Made in Perak.
Kam Wai brand. Do you have a favourite brand for this food item?
Very sticky and sweet so just eat a bit and all your teeth feels sticky. Used to eat this a lot when I was a child.

Sakima is my childhood snack though i dislike the stickiness on my teeth after eaten them. Seldom eat this now coz i prefer savoury snack.
ReplyDeleteAh, so you are familiar with this snack.
DeleteYes, a friend sent/gave me a box and I did enjoy it very much.
ReplyDeleteNice of your friend to send you a box.
DeleteI didn't know this is called Sakima. Usually I will just buy and makan. LOL :D
ReplyDeleteIt is from the Chinese name. Maybe I should Google why it is call this name.
DeleteThat snack looks familiar but the one that I used to eat as a child is not sticky like that. It had sugar sprinkled on it.
ReplyDeleteOh, please show us if you happen to buy your childhood snack some day, thanks.
DeleteNext time when you come to Ipoh, look for Hong Kee sakima... best in town, my son says.. he always buy a few packets before he leaves Ipoh.. more on the eggs side and less sweet...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendation. I wonder whether can buy online or not this hong kee sakima on shopee or Lazada. Lolx!
DeleteSakima is my wife's favourite. I actually learnt to eat this snack from her. It is like a popular snack from Perak region.
ReplyDeleteAh, do confirm this is from perak region.
DeleteI only like those sakima with less sugar so not so sticky and they are more crunchy. Used to be one of my favourite snack.
ReplyDeleteAny brands that are less sticky and more crunchy? Hong kee?
DeleteIt's my first time knowing Sakima's confectionary and it looks delicious. In my country there is a traditional food covered in sticky sugar called 'Balung Kuwuk' ...
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Indonesia.
Thanks for the info. I wonder if they taste the similar.
DeleteTasted before but I rarely buy and eat snack. I tasted not too sweet type.
ReplyDeleteOh, got sell over at your side. Which brand?
DeleteI grew up in Ipoh so sakima was always around. I rather like it though the slightly-eggy smell puts me off a bit.
ReplyDeleteYour lunch is considered a balanced one... egg=protein, kimchi=veggies and rice=carbo!
I think most people like sakima likes it because of the slightly eggy smell. This means u don't like eggy smell? Thanks, hope to have Kimchi to eat everyday. Very appetising.
DeleteI don't eat egg yolks which aren't fully-cooked. Geli a bit. So ya don't like eggy smell.
DeleteI also only eat fully cooked eggs but I am ok with eggy taste but not the strongest very xiang raw egg taste.
